The Board of ‘Horticultural Commissioners met at Grass.

Those two very simple rules, we regard as the beat yet devised for fighting the codlin’ moth and checking its ravages. In regard to the washing of the trees, we do not regard it as a preventive against the codlin moth ; and’ though it may be beneficial to the tree, still we must rely principally on the scraping of the trees and the use of the bands, ( ‘We would, besides, call the attention of owners of fruit trees to the fact that last year’s crop was what very probable that the crop this year will be naturally short, and a great deal shorted? wil) it. be if the. codlin moth is allowed to multiply at pleasure. In view of this fact we would most earnestly urge our’ people to go to work at once, scrape off their trees whenever they need to be scraped, and to be ready by the Ist of June to entrap the larve of the codlin moth at the very time they are preparing for another brood, aud of the crop of fruit, whatever it may be, ' Feuix Grier, e ~~ = Cuas.

HARRIMAN BEATEN, Ten Amateurs Mim One Mile in Twenty--A Tour Up Country. The running match at the Theatre Satu. day evening was but moderately attended owing to the fact that wonly one day’s previous notice had been given of it. Among the audience were quite a number of ladies, and the proceedings throughout were of a most orderly character, as has been the case with all similar éntertainments here in which Mr. Harriman has been engaged. “The conditions of the race were that the champion should ran 20 miles, the ten amateurs to ran 2 consecutive miles each, The track measured 39 laps to the pile, and was nearly aquare, The sawdust used had appeared dry enough when firat laid, but the warmth of the room soon brought out the moistarg i in it, and the track was thus rendered too slippery for fast running. Shortly after 8-o’cloek_ Harriman and M. E. Oliver got off for the first two miles, but on the first lap the champion’s feet flew from under him on a turn and he fell headlong. Picking himself Op as soon as possible, but’ not till Oliver had gained a lap, he started: off again more cautiously and did not. meet with another aceident during the evening. Oliver gained 14’ laps on him in the two miles, and was then 23 laps.” ‘Thomas Eddy gained a sparse third, and Frank Vaugho gained two-thirds. This placed. Harriman 5 laps behind at the beginning of the 8th mile, but he re: covered 1? laps on Owen Harrigan and 44 on C. C, Watts, which placed him 1 lap in the lead. Oliver then returned for a second run and gained 63 laps. By this time the track was so badly cut up and heavy that Harriman had to make every step with extreme care, and he found it impossible to ‘‘let himself out” under the circumstances, while the amateurs being of smaller size did not seem to 2xperience—any--trouble~in—keepiny their legs under them,.S.Ay Chas gained 9% laps, Wm. Mooney 114, and A. 0. Roy 1, making «the amateurs 274 laps, or abant nine-tenths of a milé, ahead—at the close of the 20 miles. The contest was quite spirited, the only drawback being the condition of the track which stretched the time ef the 20 miles out to 2 hours and 45 minutes. The music by Messrs. Guild and Foote was a pleasing psraecon aorsgoaps of the exhibition, ‘Mr. Harriman has_ arranged for visiting the towns of North Bloomfield, Moore’s Flat, North San J uan, Forest City, Downievitle and Sierra will give the amateur runners of those towns an opportunity to indulge in a series of friendly races with him. We can recommendsMr. Harriman to the people of the upper country as a thoroughly reliab'e and conscientious gentleman. He has made many warm friends during his recent visits to Nevada City, and has so comported himself as to win the respect of all. Mr. Harriman will be accompanied by C.

It is a sweeping scheme by which all of the mining companies of the State can be crushed in one blow, being made joint defendants as contributors to a nuisance, The chances are that the “band of Spartans” will abandon Kelley on this proposition, and even should they stay with him and fight it out—for a hot battle is inevitable —they will again ‘go down,” but not covered with glory, bah achcnacnreemacaemeneeed Death of Joseph Debernardi.

HARRIMAN BEATEN, Ten Amateurs Mim One Mile in Twenty--A Tour Up Country. The running match at the Theatre Satu. day evening was but moderately attended owing to the fact that wonly one day’s previous notice had been given of it. Among the audience were quite a number of ladies, and the proceedings throughout were of a most orderly character, as has been the case with all similar éntertainments here in which Mr. Harriman has been engaged. “The conditions of the race were that the champion should ran 20 miles, the ten amateurs to ran 2 consecutive miles each, The track measured 39 laps to the pile, and was nearly aquare, The sawdust used had appeared dry enough when firat laid, but the warmth of the room soon brought out the moistarg i in it, and the track was thus rendered too slippery for fast running. Shortly after 8-o’cloek_ Harriman and M. E. Oliver got off for the first two miles, but on the first lap the champion’s feet flew from under him on a turn and he fell headlong.. Picking himself Op as soon as possible, but’ not till Oliver had gained a lap, he started: off again more cautiously and did not. meet with another aceident during the evening. Oliver gained 14’ laps on him in the two miles, and was then 23 laps.” ‘Thomas Eddy gained a sparse third, and Frank Vaugho gained two-thirds. This placed. Harriman 5 laps behind at the beginning of the 8th mile, but he re: covered 1? laps on Owen Harrigan and 44 on C. C, Watts, which placed him 1 lap in the lead. Oliver then returned for a second run and gained 63 laps. By this time the track was so badly cut up and heavy that Harriman had to make every step with extreme care, and he found it impossible to ‘‘let himself out” under the circumstances, while the amateurs being of smaller size did not seem to 2xperience—any--trouble~in—keepiny their legs under them,.S.Ay Chas gained 9% laps, Wm. Mooney 114, and A. 0. Roy 1, making «the amateurs 274 laps, or abant nine-tenths of a milé, ahead—at the close of the 20 miles. The contest was quite spirited, the only drawback being the condition of the track which stretched the time ef the 20 miles out to 2 hours and 45 minutes. The music by Messrs. Guild and Foote was a pleasing psraecon aorsgoaps of the exhibition, ‘Mr. Harriman has_ arranged for visiting the towns of North Bloomfield, Moore’s Flat, North San J uan, Forest City, Downievitle and Sierra will give the amateur runners of those towns an opportunity to indulge in a series of friendly races with him. We can recommendsMr. Harriman to the people of the upper country as a thoroughly reliab'e and conscientious gentleman.

It is a sweeping scheme by which all of the mining companies of the State can be crushed in one blow, being made joint defendants as contributors to a nuisance, The chances are that the “band of Spartans” will abandon Kelley on this proposition, and even should they stay with him and fight it out—for a hot battle is inevitable —they will again ‘go down,” but not covered with glory, bah achcnacnreemacaemeneeed Death of Joseph Debernardi.

Who ever can That great immortal truth condemn, Or place us forms that outrank men? And. yet, that “‘beauty unadorned Is most adorned,” by man is spurned; For-ever since that fatal day, When Adam gave the race away By Eve induced, whose rarest charms Ope’d up his ey¢s to falsealarms, As he took in the “‘tree of knowledge,” (No need had he to go to college) The green-eyed monster on him pressed, He then his Eve in fig leaves dressed, As well’s himself.
